Racoon Eyes Due To Amyloidosis

Periorbital Purpura Due To Amyloidosis
Periorbital purpura, also known as "raccoon eyes," is a condition characterized by the appearance of purple or red bruises around the eyes. It can be caused by a number of different conditions, one of which is amyloidosis. Amyloidosis is a group of diseases caused by the abnormal buildup of a protein called amyloid in various organs and tissues in the body. In the case of periorbital purpura due to amyloidosis, the amyloid protein deposits in blood vessels in the area around the eyes, causing them to become fragile and easily bruised. This condition may be accompanied by other symptoms such as fatigue, weight loss, and organ dysfunction, depending on the type of amyloidosis. Treatment for periorbital purpura due to amyloidosis typically involves addressing the underlying amyloidosis and may include medications, chemotherapy, or a stem cell transplant.
Periorbital purpura, also known as periorbital ecchymosis or raccoon eyes, is a symptom that can occur in some forms of amyloidosis. It is characterized by the appearance of dark purple or red bruises around the eyes. The exact cause of periorbital purpura in amyloidosis is not fully understood, but it is thought to be related to the deposition of amyloid protein in blood vessels in the skin around the eyes. This can cause the vessels to become fragile and leak blood, resulting in the appearance of the bruises.
Periorbital purpura is most commonly seen in a type of amyloidosis called primary systemic amyloidosis, which is caused by the abnormal production of a protein called light chain amyloid. However, it can also occur in other forms of amyloidosis such as AL amyloidosis and hereditary amyloidosis. It is a nonspecific symptom and can be seen in other conditions as well.

If you suspect you have periorbital purpura, it is important to see a doctor to rule out or confirm a diagnosis of amyloidosis, and to get appropriate treatment.
